I think I've mentioned before that Brinlee isn't the best eater. She'll sit all night if the dinner option isn't something she loves. Or even if it is something she loves but her mood isn't right. It's frustrating. So we started setting her a timer. If she hasn't finished by the time she hears the ding, then we get her down and she gets to try again in the morning.
Dinner for breakfast. Yum.
Last night was a night she wouldn't eat. So this morning she was awake, super hungry, and up to the table with that dinner in front of her by 6:15. At 9:22, after I had gotten McKenna up and fed, started some laundry, bathed and dressed McKenna, taken my own shower, and put McKenna down for nap, I came down to find an empty plate and this...
It took her three hours, and tuckered her right out, but she did eat that dinner!
Poor thing.
It's tough being little.
Oh, that is so cute! I promise you...she will learn it is just easier to eat dinner at dinner time!
